Yikes! Karlie Kloss Does Yellowface In Vogue's Diversity Issue

Cultural appropriation in the fashion
industry will not be tolerated anymore. In the March diversity issue of Vogue
magazine, model Karlie Kloss appears as a geisha in a Japanese themed
photoshoot. How ironic. In the spread, Kloss has a black wig on and a Japanese
robe. The shoot was criticized on social media for cultural appropriation and yellow face.

This morning, the former Victoria's Secret
angel tweeted the following apology:

"These images appropriate a
culture that is not my own and I am truly sorry for participating in a shoot
that was not culturally sensitive. My goal is, and always will be, to empower
and inspire women. I will ensure my future shoots and projects reflect that
mission."

This is not
the first time Karlie has been under fire for cultural appropriation. During
the taping of The 2012 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in New York, Karlie wore
a Native American headdress and sparked backlash.
